I've written a WCF service that is hosted within a Windows Service on my home computer. I then wrote an MVC3 site that is attempting to connect to the service. The MVC3 site is hosted on godaddy servers. I opened the ports on my firewall correctly because I am able to access the service description site from a computer on a different network, and I even had a friend connect to the web service from a console app running on his computer, and it worked perfectly. However, when I attempt to call the web service from my MVC3 site it throws the following error:
There was no endpoint listening at http://myExternIpAddress:8000/MyService/service that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.
Here is the important part of the app.config for the service:
<services>
<service name="MyService.MyService"
behaviorConfiguration="MyServiceBehavior" >
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://localhost:8000/MyService/service" />
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<endpoint address=""
binding="basicHttpBinding"
contract="MyService.IMyService" />
<endpoint address="mex"
binding="mexHttpBinding"
contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="MyServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
and here is the service section of the web.config for the MVC3 site
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IMyService" />
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://myExternalIpAddress:8000/MyService/service"
binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IMyService"
contract="LocalService.IMyService" name="BasicHttpBinding_IMyService" />
</client>
<behaviors>

<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
</system.serviceModel>
Thanks for any help that you can provide!
I would contact GoDaddy for support. If the WCF service works from your friends machine - it is likely a hosting environment issue.

All,
Env:
Asp.net 4.0
IIS 7 (or greater)
WCF service consumed by SL component
Authentication:
Anonymous/Forms
When I attempt to browse to my WCF web service (using browser) I get the following exception on my web service, I need to get rid of this error:
The authentication schemes configured on the host ('IntegratedWindowsAuthentication') do not allow those configured on the binding 'BasicHttpBinding' ('Anonymous'). Please ensure that the SecurityMode is set to Transport or TransportCredentialOnly. Additionally, this may be resolved by changing the authentication schemes for this application through the IIS management tool, through the ServiceHost.Authentication.AuthenticationSchemes property, in the application configuration file at the element, by updating the ClientCredentialType property on the binding, or by adjusting the AuthenticationScheme property on the HttpTransportBindingElement.
I looked at ALL related posts and none of them help me.
I am not using any authentication or user/pwd transmission for my service.
The service I need to get working is consumed by Silverlight component and has this name in web.config file:
Htmls.WebStore.Services.WebStoreServices (ignore the other service).
Here's my web.config:

The exception was caused by having incorrect permission on the folder where the xxxxx.svc file was. The folder was locked down using security permissions.
I've got an ASP.NET website on my development server (test2.com) that contains two WCF services that are set up in their own IIS application in a subdirectory of that site (test2.com/services). Everything is working on this site as it should. I'm now ready to move this website and the services to my production server (test.com and test.com/services), and I'm continually getting an HTTP 400 message no matter what I try. I've updated the service references on the production website and renamed the appropriate references on the services to point to the production URL. I've also made the appropriate updates in my client web.config file to the following:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IChatService" />
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IOnlineUsersService" />
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://test.com/services/ChatService.svc/services/chatservice.svc"
binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IChatService"
contract="Chat.IChatService" name="BasicHttpBinding_IChatService" />
<endpoint address="http://test.com/services/OnlineUsersService.svc/services/onlineusersservice.svc"
binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IOnlineUsersService"
contract="OnlineUsers.IOnlineUsersService" name="BasicHttpBinding_IOnlineUsersService" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
The appropriate web.config file on the service contains the following:
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
<services>
<service name="ChatServiceLibrary.ChatService">
<endpoint address="/services/chatservice.svc" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="ChatServiceLibrary.IChatService" />

The web services themselves work fine if I call them from a web browser. What am I missing?
I have downloaded a layered sample from Codeplex from this link: https://layersample.codeplex.com/releases/view/107797
This contain a WCF service with this structure:
service contract library
service implementation library
web host project
Question: in the web host project, there is no .SVC file and it only contains configuration in the web.config file.
Can anyone guide me how it works or how I could consume/add service reference in a client application/how to host this on IIS.
This is the web.config file :
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true">

<add factory="System.ServiceModel.Activation.ServiceHostFactory"

Thank you
The project you downloaded is using "fileless activation":
<serviceActivations>
<add factory="System.ServiceModel.Activation.ServiceHostFactory"
relativeAddress="./LeaveService.svc"
service="LeaveSample.Services.LeaveService" />
<add factory="System.ServiceModel.Activities.Activation.WorkflowServiceHostFactory"
relativeAddress="./LeaveWorkflowService.svc"
service="LeaveSample.Workflows.LeaveWorkflowService" />
</serviceActivations>
The above portion of the configuration file defines two service activation endpoints, without having to have a physical .svc file.
It is hosted and consumed like any other WCF service using IIS - the only difference is there is no .svc file.
File-less activation was one of several WCF features introduced with WCF 4.0. You can read about it (and the other features) here - A Developer's Introduction to to Windows Communication Foundation 4.
I'm getting the following error when my ASP.NET 4.0 site loads, and it's because of my WCF service settings in the web.config file (I'm just not enough of a WCF expert and Google isn't helping :)):
The endpoint at '[Path to my Service.svc]' does not have a Binding
with the None MessageVersion.
'System.ServiceModel.Description.WebScriptEnablingBehavior' is only
intended for use with WebHttpBinding or similar bindings.
I was using webHttpBinding but was getting the following error, so now I'm using basicHttpBinding after following the advice of this post:
Security settings for this service require 'Anonymous' Authentication
but it is not enabled for the IIS application that hosts this
service.
Anyways, here's the relevant info from my web.config. Please help!
<system.serviceModel>

<behavior name="ABC.ProjectName.Web.ServiceBehavior">
<serviceDebug httpHelpPageEnabled="true" includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />

You can't use basicHttpBinding with enableWebScript. Set your binding to WebHttpBinding.
<service name="ABC.ProjectName.Web.AjaxService" >
<endpoint address="/" behaviorConfiguration="ABC.ProjectName.Web.ServiceBehavior"
binding="webHttpBinding"

I've set up a WCF web service to be called from my web site. It's working great, but if I request a large amount of data (not sure on the size, but it's easily 3-4 times larger than the "standard" data I'm returning), Cassini (Visual Studio Web Server) just closes the response without sending anything-- no error or anything. Nothing in event log. Just nada.
I'm a newbie to WCF, but I know there must be some configuration option I'm missing here (like a message/response max size/limit) that solves my problem. Here's what my web.config section looks like:
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" />
<behaviors>
<endpointBehaviors>
<behavior name="securetmhAspNetAjaxBehavior">
<enableWebScript />
</behavior>
</endpointBehaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="tmhsecureBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="false" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<services>
<service name="securetmh">
<endpoint address="" behaviorConfiguration="securetmhAspNetAjaxBehavior" binding="webHttpBinding" contract="securetmh" />
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>
Any help would be appreciated.
For security reasons, WCF limits the data returned by a service call to 64 K by default.
You can obviously change that - there's a gazillion of entries to tweak. See this sample config here:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<webHttpBinding>
<binding name="customWebHttp"
maxBufferPoolSize="256000"
maxReceivedMessageSize="256000"
maxBufferSize="256000">
<readerQuotas
maxArrayLength="256000"
maxStringContentLength="256000"/>
</binding>
</webHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service name="YourService">
<endpoint name="test"
address="....."
binding="webHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="customWebHttp"
contract="IYourService" />
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>
You need to define a custom binding configuration based on the webHttpBinding, and you can tweak all those various settings - I set them all to 256K (instead of 64K).
Hope this helps!
